About

“Remove Shark Nets” is a campaign to act to remove the shark nets from QLD and NSW in Australia. Inspired by campaigns for the removal of the nets within the Kwa-zulu Natal Coast Shark Net Program (South Africa)  we decided to start a movement for the shark net removal in Australia.

Passionate locals from the Gold Coast (QLD), Tweed Coast (NSW), Byron Shire (NSW) and Sydney (NSW) have bound together and are working to expose the truth about the shark nets. Divers are checking the nets and are freeing captured marine life on a regular basis.

This website aims to inform readers of the negative impacts of shark nets on sharks, dolphins, whales, dugongs, turtles and rays and many fish species with the Shark Control Program in QLD and Shark Meshing Program in NSW. We also hope to get your support to help these innocent marine species who have no voice and fall at the whim to our ingrained fear of sharks.

We hope to educate people to abandon their fears about sharks and learn to live with the animals of this planet not against them.

For the protection of one of the earths most undervalued species and the innocent marine life that falls victim to the shark nets…
